Discussion Add Online World Cup-Style Tournament Mode- playstation,pc,xbox
Hello EA SPORTS FC team,
I would like to strongly request the addition of a proper Online World Cup / International Tournament Mode, similar to the excitement we had during the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Back then, one of the most enjoyable experiences was being able to:
- Choose a national team
- Play a full online tournament against real players
- Go through a knockout bracket (group stage → round of 16 → quarterfinals → final)
- Experience the feeling of a real World Cup competition online
This created a very competitive and immersive mode that many players loved, especially during the World Cup period.
What I am suggesting:
Please add a permanent or recurring Online International Tournament Mode with the following features:
Full Online Knockout Tournament
- Players select national teams (e.g. Croatia, Brazil, France, etc.)
- 48-team or 32-team bracket format
- Real-time matchmaking against other players
- Group stage + knockout rounds (just like real World Cup format)
Co-op 2v2 Online Option
- Allow players to invite a guest/friend
- Play as a duo (2v2) in online tournament matches
- Same national team or custom co-op teams
- This would make the mode even more fun for friends playing together
Rewards and Progression
- Cosmetic rewards (kits, badges, stadium themes)
- Seasonal ranking or leaderboard for tournament performance
- Special World Cup event weekends
Limited-Time Events
- Could be released during international breaks or World Cup years
- Or as a recurring event in FUT / Online Seasons
Why this is important:
This mode was one of the most exciting parts of previous FIFA World Cup experiences. It felt unique because it was not just Ultimate Team or regular online seasons — it was a true competitive international tournament against real players.
Many players still miss this experience and would love to see it return in EA SPORTS FC as a dedicated online mode.
Thank you for reading, and I hope this idea reaches the development team.
